Full moon August 2024

Super Blue Moon Alert: Get Ready to Wish Upon a Celestial Wonder!

Don’t miss out on the rare Super Blue Moon on August 19, 2024! Here's how to catch this cosmic spectacular!

Mark your calendars, moon gazers! On August 19, 2024, the night sky will play host to a mesmerizing cosmic event—the rare Super Blue Moon! Unlike your regular full moon that brightens up the night, this enchanting spectacle features not one, but two moon phenomena in one night: a "supermoon," where the moon hops closest to Earth, making it swell in size and glow brighter than the rest of the month, and a "blue moon," which happens when there’s a second full moon within a single calendar month. Brace yourself for a natural light show that’s expected to light up our skies with a shine nearly 7% larger and 15% brighter than your average full moon!

So how can you make the most of this lunar event? Well, whether you are nestled in a cozy spot in the Philippines or wandering through the streets with your friends, don't forget to look up! The Super Blue Moon should be especially prominent around sunset—perfect timing for those Instagram-worthy pictures! Grab your favorite snacks, set up a comfy viewing spot, and channel your inner astronomer as you document this once-in-a-blue-moon moment. Just remember, clear skies are key, so keep an eye on the weather forecast!

As if the excitement couldn't get any better, there’s a cosmic twist to this event! August 19 is also a time for manifestation under the stars. Many believe that during a Blue Moon, the potent energies of the universe are aligned just right for you to focus on your aspirations and desires. Why not seize the opportunity to write down your wishes while basking in the glow of lunar magic? It’s a win-win: celestial viewing and vision boarding, all under the same moonlit sky!

Did you know that these magnificent blue moons only occur about once every ten years? With the added star power of being a supermoon, this celestial combination is a rare treat indeed, making it all the more special for sky-watchers. And here's a fun fact: Despite the name, a Blue Moon doesn’t actually appear blue. In fact, it’s a play on the rarity of having two full moons in one month! So, prepare your viewing parties, pack those picnics, and wait in anticipation—all while dreaming big under the Super Blue Moon!
